Launching Simone’s Rocket–It Might Work!

Simone and the team drive out to Nevada to participate in the annual Balls hobbyist rocket event! To join in on the fun, Simone has to first build her own rocket to launch. The countdown to blast off begins! (Thanks so much to Clay Reynolds who helped us with this project! Find his rocket launch videos here.)

  1. It sounded like the LCO announced an I motor. Did we just watch Simon(e) get her L1 certification with her first-ever rocket? That would be so cool. Nicely done, in any case.

  2. The first of many. Now you’re ready to go full scale. I have every confidence. I’m sure they will all work. Fingers crossed, anyway.

  3. Congrats Simone, my daughter and I loved this video 🙂 Shes 6 and digs this. When you start your Super Villain career she’ll send a resume.

  4. I love the intro, also the outfit you wore in the beginning is exactly what I expect actual rocket engineers wear… or you’re on an episode of This Old House… either way, nailed it 😉

  5. This was great to watch! Gave me flashbacks to when I built rockets with 4-H as a kid. Ours were much smaller, and we didn’t usually get to actually launch them, but it was still a lot of fun.

  6. Really liked it but kinda missed seeing the rocket come back to earth. Would have loved to see that rather than only getting the description of it 🙂
